Water main repairs close three lanes on Pratt Street

The Baltimore City Department of Public Works said on Thursday morning that traffic along Pratt Street is still hampered by a Wednesday water main break at Market Place.

DPW spokesman Kurt Kocher said that crews are on the scene repairing a 10-inch break that runs seven feet deep and beneath a storm drain. As of 10:50 a.m., Kocher said, two northbound lanes on Pratt Street are closed and Market Place is closed between Lombard and Pratt Street.

Kocher said DPW is determining how to proceed with repairs and added a completion time had yet to be determined.
